As the Ice Caps Melt This article is directed to the land trust community and to oth- er individuals and organizations that seek to preserve and pro- tect land through conservation easements. "It begins with the assumption, based upon overwhelming scientific data and analy- sis, that global warming is here and is having disastrous effects. To support this assumption, this article provides the reader with citations to a mountain of research and scholarship that has been published on the subject of climate change in the past three years. Given the reality of global warming, this article examines how conservation easements should be drafted to help deal with the sweeping and devastating changes global warming will bring. This article is a sequel to a previous law review article ad- dressing many of the same core issues.' Thus, this article covers some previously trodden ground, but in new ways. Like its pre- decessor, this article argues that upon any easement termina- * Jim Olmsted is a graduate of the University of California at Davis, School of Law.

See James L. Olmsted, Capturing the Value of Appreciated Development Rights on Conservation Easement Termination, 30 ENVIRONS ENVTL. L. & POLY'Y J. 39 (Fall 2006). ST JOHN'SJOURNAL OFLEGAL COMMENTARY [Vol. 23:3 tion, it is the holder of a conservation easement, and not the un- derlying landowner, that is entitled to the appreciated value of the development rights held in abeyance by a conservation ease- ment. In addition, both articles also address conservation ease- ment provisions that would calculate and direct such appreciated value to the easement holder and that would also prevent the landowner from receiving an unwarranted windfall. Finally, both articles discuss a new type of conservation easement, name- ly an "ark" easement, which is intended to assist species and eco- systems in global warming caused migrations by being termina- ble at the easement holder's option. However, unlike the previous article, this article devotes addi- tional attention to what will be one of the most prominent effects of climate change, namely the mass migrations of plant and ani- mal species as they "climate surf' to keep pace with the underly- ing pole-ward shifts in the climates in which they evolved. As well as raising awareness of the general need to address these climate change issues in future conservation easements, this ar- ticle proposes certain specific changes in drafting conservation easements which should be incorporated in all new conservation easements even now, as the ice caps melt. 2 While reviewing both 2 See WILLIAM SWEET, KICKING THE CARBON HABIT: GLOBAL WARMING AND THE CASE FOR RENEWABLE AND NUCLEAR ENERGY 1, 136-37 (Columbia University Press 2006) (noting that "Arctic ice has thinned by as much as 40 percent in the last three decades," and also recording the chronology of loss of Antarctic ice: in 1995, Larsen A ice shelf disintegrated; in 1998, the Wilkins ice shelf collapsed; in 2002, the Larsen B ice shelf shattered); see also MARLA CONE, SILENT SNOW: THE SLOW POISONING OF THE ARCTIC 169 (Grove Press 2005) ("As global temperatures rise, the higher latitudes are particularly vulnerable to pro- nounced effects, and substantial changes in the ice have already been documented."); DAVID HELVARG, BLUE FRONTIER: DISPATCHES FROM AMERICA'S OCEAN WILDERNESS 118 (Sierra Club Books 2006) (on file with author) ("Since 1970 climatologists have predicted that global warming, as it kicks in, would occur most rapidly at the poles, a fact now con- firmed by scientists in Alaska, Canada, and Greenland, at the North Pole, and here on the Antarctic Peninsula."); GEORGE OCHOA, JENNIFER HOFFMAN & TINA TIN, CLIMATE: THE FORCE THAT SHAPES OUR WORLD AND THE FUTURE OF LIFE ON EARTH (Rodale 2005) (revealing in a summary of Chapter 6, "Melting Snow and Ice," that, "[d]ramatic evidence shows that climate in the polar and alpine regions is changing at alarming speeds, melt- ing glaciers and reducing ice coverage in crucial places, and exerting a profound effect on global climate."); Andrew C. Revkin, Arctic Ice Melting Faster Than Expected, N.Y. TIMES, Dec. 12, 2006 at F3 (describing emerging scientific predictions regarding increased rates at which Arctic ice is melting); DOUG MACDOUGALL, FROZEN EARTH: THE ONCE AND FUTURE STORY OF ICE AGES 233 (University of California Press 2004) ("Recent concern about global warming, and especially the impact of mankind's addition of greenhouse gases to the natural atmospheric inventory, has led to increased awareness of the role these gases may play in starting or ending ice ages."); Paul Nicklen, Life at the Edge, NAT'L GEOGRAPHIC, June 2007, available at http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/ 2008] CLIMATE SURFING articles would allow the reader to see how the ideas in the present article have evolved and changed, this article is suffi- ciently self-contained that it is not necessary to read the prior ar- ticle by way of an introduction. B. A Scientific Certainty Neither the existence nor the imminence of global warming is any longer subject to scientific doubt. The world's scientific community stands in complete consensus on the issue of global warming. Not only will human-caused global warming occur, it is already occurring. Likewise, not only will such human-caused global warming open a Pandora's Box of disastrous human and environmental consequences, many such consequences are al- ready here. Indeed, climate scientists have already moved beyond describing the nature and effects of global warming to the "autobiographical" phase of writing their own histories of the dis- covery of global warming and climate change. 3 To repeat, no ra- tional and informed mind could doubt the existence and immi- nence of global warming and its dire consequences.4 Accordingly, 0706/featurel/ (documenting our planet's dwindling supply of polar ice); Tim Appenzeller, The Big Thaw, NAT'L GEOGRAPHIC, June 2007, available at http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/O706/feature2/ (warning, surprisingly, for this periodical, that "[ilt's no surprise that a warming climate is melting the world's glaciers and polar ice. But no one expected it to happen this fast."). 3 See SPENCER R. WEART, THE DISCOVERY OF GLOBAL WARMING, ix-x (Harvard Univer- sity Press 2003) (describing a website, found at http://www.aip.org/history/climate/, which contains over two dozen essays running in parallel, interconnected by over 700 hyper- links, and with references to over 1,000 scientific and historical publications); see general- ly GALE E. CHRISTIANSON, GREENHOUSE: THE 200-YEAR STORY OF GLOBAL WARMING (Walker & Co. 1999) (providing a study of the greenhouse effect and its impact on human history); MATTHEW J. HOFFMANN, OZONE DEPLETION AND CLIMATE CHANGE: CONSTRUCTING A GLOBAL RESPONSE (SUNY Press 2005) (highlighting emerging global responses to climate change and ozone depletion since the 1980's). 4 Because of the overwhelming consensus among the global scientific community re- garding the imminence and likely disastrous consequences of global warming and global climate change, it is difficult to find any credible evidence or analysis to the contrary. Nevertheless, a number of so-called "disinformation specialists" have managed to publish challenges to the global consensus. Notable among such authors for his overly confident and under-researched writing style is Robert G. Williscroft, author of THE CHICKEN LITTLE AGENDA: DEBUNKING "EXPERTS"' LIES. ROBERT G. WILLISCROFT, THE CHICKEN LITTLE AGENDA: DEBUNKING "EXPERTS" LIES, (Pelican Publishing Company 2006). As it is beyond the scope of this article to rebut a work such as THE CHICKEN LITTLE AGENDA: DEBUNKING "EXPERTS" LIES, suffice it to say that anyone not already pre-disposed to dis- believe the vast majority of the world's scientists will find Williscroft's prose self- rebutting. A further reason for dismissing this book is its remarkable lack of citation to a single scientific study and the book's reliance on a mere thirty or so secondary sources, ST JOHN'SJOURNAL OFLEGAL COMMENTARY [Vol. 23:3 this article will not spend much time arguing the existence of human-caused global warming and climate change. It is already here, and there is an immense and ever-growing body of evidence 5 to prove it. most of them too dated to have even considered the current overwhelming body of scientif- ic evidence supporting the existence of global warming. In a category related to those ideologues that dismiss the painstakingly formulated consensus of the world's premier scientists on the subject of global warming are those who admit to the problem but believe descriptions of its intractability to be exaggerated.

  • El Calentamiento Global Según La Proyección De Futurama. Un Análisis Desde La Ecocrítica Nadia Der-Ohannesian CONICET
    El calentamiento global según la proyección de Futurama. Un análisis desde la ecocrítica Nadia Der-Ohannesian CONICET. Facultad de Lenguas, UNC RESUMEN Este trabajo analiza “Crimes of the Hot”, episodio número 62 de la seria Futurama emitido por primera vez en la cuarta temporada de la serie y nominado en 2003 al premio de la Environmental Media Association. El episodio, traducido al español como “Crímenes de calor”, trata sobre el origen del calentamiento global que sufre la tierra en el siglo XXXI y las descabelladas propuestas que se ofrecen como soluciones al problema. Para abordar el episodio nos preguntamos cómo se representa el problema del calentamiento global y cómo contribuye a esta representación el topos del futuro distópico, a menudo explotado por la ciencia ficción, considerando las particulares características de esta serie. Se observa que la representación del calentamiento global como un problema que los humanos en general y los políticos y científicos en particular son incapaces de resolver de manera profunda y definitiva, junto con y como parte del topos del futuro distópico comportan una crítica hacia las desaprensivas y descomprometidas prácticas actuales con respecto al medioambiente. palabras clave: Calentamiento global, futuro distópico, crítica ABSTRACT This work analyzes the 62th episode of Futurama, “Crimes of the Hot”, which was broadcast in the fourth season of the show and nominated in 2003 for the Environmental Media Association Award in 2003.

    The Andromedan INSIDE: Book/Tape Reviews Log#63 Star Trek April 2002 Star Wars Vol. 5 #15 The official monthly newsletter of Star Base Andromeda Lincoln, NE Fellowship of the Rings — 4 Oscars The fan-favorite epic fantasy film The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring went into the 74th annual Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday, March 24th with an impressive 13 nominations. Of those, three were among the six “crown jewel” categories (Best Picture, Best Director and Best Supporting Actor [Ian McKellan as Gandalf]). When the longest Academy Awards ceremony ever held was finally over, The Fellowship of the Ring walked away with four statuettes…but none of the most coveted top awards. A Beautiful Mind, a biographical picture about a disturbed genius, proved to be the main competition, also taking in four awards, including Best Picture and Best Director (for Ron “Opie” Howard). In the category of Best Supporting Actor, Jim Broadbent took the prize for his portrayal of a supportive husband in Iris, a biographical film about author Iris Murdoch’s descent into mental illness. The Fellowship of the Ring took home Oscars in the categories of Cinematography, Makeup, Original Score (for Howard Shore) and Visual Effects. In addition to Film, Director and Supporting Actor, FOTR was also nominated and did not win in the categories of Adapted Screenplay, Film Editing, Original Song (“May it Be” by Enya), Art Direction, Costume Design and Sound. The other major fantasy film of 2001, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, came into the night with three nomina- tions (Original Score [John Williams], Art Direction and Costume Design) but left empty-handed.

Pike Dr. Scott Slovic, Thesis Advisor August 2010 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the dissertation prepared under our supervision by DEIDRE M. PIKE entitled Enviro-toons How Animated Media Communicate Environmental Themes be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dr. Scott Slovic, Advisor Dr. Cheryll Glotfelty, Committee Member Dr. Jane Detweiler, Committee Member Dr. Michael Edward Lenert, Committee Member Dr. Donica Mensing, Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School August, 2010 Copyright by Deidre M. Pike 2010 All Rights Reserved i Abstract Enviro-toons: How Animated Media Communicate Environmental Themes adopts an ecocritical approach to exploring environmental themes in contemporary U.S. animation. As such, it exemplifies a newly emerging strain of green cultural criticism that considers the texts of popular culture while rooting itself in ecocritical literary theory. Animations geared for adult or mixed audiences are examined in light of Joseph Meeker’s considerations of tragic and comic discourse modes and Mikhail Bakhtin’s folk culture, carnivalesque, and distinctions between the epic (a fixed monologue) and the novel (an open dialogic exploration). This study proposes a loose taxonomy of animation with environmental themes—enviro-toons—situating these texts along a continuum between the monologic and dialogic texts, to borrow Bakhtin’s terms. The term monologic as used here indicates animated texts with dualistic social or political agendas evidently intended to indoctrinate the masses.
